The NY times tells us to forget what we know about study tips

According to the New York Times cramming one topic or subject each study session is less effective than jumping from book to book, and mixing subjects up! Apparently your brain may have to relearn what it already knows before it can absorb new material. This seems to create a sort of cross checking process when you change topics, reinforcing the material you just have learned. I wonder if checking facebook kicks off this mental double-check?
